Chapter 242

That happened before Ash joined their brave team.

During the journey, she and Xin Meier passed through a destroyed village.

There were many monsters in the village, and even a giant dragon suddenly appeared. They were caught off guard by the dragon and got separated during the escape.

Fulilian and Haita fled to the basement under a burned house.

"We got separated from Xin Meier and Aize."

"It seems so."

Fulilian and Haita, who had consumed a lot of energy because of the escape, sat down without paying attention to the dust on the ground.

"Flillian, can you use magic to detect the location of Xinmeier and the others?"

"No... The outside is completely covered by the magic of the dragon. I can't feel the magic of Xinmeier and the others or the magic of those monsters."

Flillian said while adjusting her breathing: "If we want to be more precise, we will expose our position and attract the dragon."

Although they are monsters, the dragons in this world have wisdom that is not inferior to humans. They will even pretend to be seriously injured when they can't beat the enemy to cause the enemy to relax and then run away decisively.

"Doesn't that mean that our current situation is very dangerous?"

"Did you just realize this?"

Flillian quietly raised her head and looked at Haita's face.

"You don't seem to be worried at all."

"Because I believe Xinmeier and Aize will come to rescue us soon."

Hearing this, Fulillian frowned.

"That's too stupid, isn't it? In this situation, the most correct thing to do should be to quickly escape from the town, and then find a way to lure the dragon away to rescue us, right?"

"Hahaha, indeed, what you said should be the safest thing to do at the moment."

Haita smiled, not denying Fulilian's words at all.

"But, before entering this town, didn't Xinmeier say this... 'With me here, nothing will happen.'"

Haita lowered his head, still smiling, as if he was lost in memories.

"Xinmeier has fulfilled every promise he made... It has been like this since the time in the village."

"So, when he said he would become a brave man to defeat the devil, I believed him and embarked on this journey with him."

"And this time, he said nothing will happen, so I will believe him too."

Fulilian stared straight at Haita's face, but couldn't see anything.

In Fulilian's view, Haita's trust in Xinmeier was unreasonable, unreasonable, and incomprehensible.

But Haita obviously had no intention of continuing.

He felt a little impatient in his heart, and his thoughts were like a mess.

This impatience was difficult to relieve until there was movement outside.

There were human shouts, dragon roars, and sounds of fighting.

The pressure of the dragon came, and even in the basement, Fulilian and Haita could still feel the dragon's might that seemed to make the earth tremble.

"It seems that Xinmeier and Aize have already started the attack. They are really hot-blooded guys... Unlike me, who is just a poor monk with little fighting power."

While standing up, Haita also laughed at himself a few times, and after walking a few steps towards the exit, he turned his head and looked at Fulilian.

"Let's go, let's join the battle too."

"... Yeah."

As if the sound came from her nose, Fulilian responded.

Walking out of the basement, Fulilian and Haita immediately saw the eye-catching white long "He" swinging wildly under the roar of the dragon, and above the dragon's head, Aize was holding a huge axe and slashing fiercely.

Fulilian and Haita looked at each other, said no more, and quickly joined the battlefield.

He fulfilled all of Xinmeier's promises... Whether it was the dragon at that time or the demon king he met at the end of the journey, Xinmeier defeated them all.

His thoughts gradually returned, his pupils slowly focused, and Xinmeier's figure dissipated like a broken bubble, replaced by the figure of Ash clearly reflected in his eyes.

The memories came to an abrupt end, like the clouds on the sea quietly retreating, leaving behind the dreamlike remembrance, exposing the reality reflected on the sea surface.

"Really..."

Fulilian turned her head away so that people could not see her expression clearly, and could only see the corner of her mouth with an elusive smile.

"Since you said so, then I believe you."

Then, Fulilian injected magic power into the magic circle under her feet.

The mechanism from the distant past was activated, and Xutalk and Feiren both looked solemn. Only by holding the weapons in their hands tightly could they feel a little bit of peace of mind.

Then, right before their eyes... the ground cracked.

No, it wasn't "cracked", it was "opened".

A huge "door" suddenly appeared on the ground, with many complicated patterns around it, and stairs extending downwards, it was unknown how deep it was.

"This looks like a ruin."

438

Chapter 438 It's common sense to max out the exploration before going to the next map.

"Puchi!"

Accompanied by the sound of a sword piercing into flesh and blood, a pitch-black monster screamed and fell to the ground, with a white sword and a gorgeous knight sword made of lapis lazuli stuck in its forehead.

"Okay, another one."

As if taking a walk, Ash walked leisurely, pulled out the knight sword, and then the monster turned into a ball of flying ash.

Putting the long sword back into the staff, Ash continued to move forward alone until a wall blocked her in front.

"This is also a dead end..."

This is the ruins that Ai and the others discovered.

Simmel once said, "Since the ruins that have not been fully explored are now in front of us, why not go in and take a look?"

Fulian was very concerned about the unexplored ruins and the magic items and magic books that were likely to appear inside, so they decided to go explore it.

Ash and Fulian are experts in exploring ruins... After all, they have both explored ruins with Simmel many times.

Because it was a ruin that had not yet been explored, Ai and the others harvested a lot of good things not long after they entered, and Fulian was also eaten by a Mimic as expected.

Then... because of encountering a trap in the ruins, when Ai reacted, the others had already separated.

"It's really tiring... I, the parent, need to find the three children one by one after they are lost."

Sighing slightly, Ash continued walking along the long and narrow aisle.

When passing a corner, Qi's expression suddenly changed, and he raised his staff and pointed it at his side.

Almost at the same time, a figure also raised his staff like Qie, and their wary gazes met in mid-air.

When they saw each other's face clearly, both of them were stunned for a moment.

"Phelan?"

"Master Qi?"

She has waist-length dark purple hair and a round face with almost no emotion.

Surprisingly, it was Feilun who had been separated before.

Ash put down the staff, "Are you the only one? Where are Fulilian, Shutark and the others?"

"...I'm sorry, Lord Ash, I don't know the locations of Lord Frilian and Lord Hughtark."

Fearon lowered his head, his eyes dimmed slightly.

"Yeah."

Ji tilted his head, his expression calm, "Then let's go find them. Don't worry, they can protect themselves."

Next, Ai and Fei Lun explored the ruins while searching for the lost team members. Although there was no news at all, Ai didn't seem to worry about the safety of Fulilian and Shutark at all.

The earth-yellow walls are covered with traces of time erosion, making people very worried whether the ruins will collapse due to too much movement.

Because they were in the ruins and could not accurately grasp the passage of time, Ai and Feilun did not know how long they had spent in the ruins.

After seeing countless dead ends, the two came to an empty hall. A stone man more than ten meters high appeared in front of them. Behind the stone man was a huge door full of ancient atmosphere.

"According to my experience, behind that door is either a treasure house or a staircase leading to the next level, and this stone man should be the guardian of this level."

Human beings generally feel uneasy or afraid of huge creatures. Some people say that this fear comes from their ancestors' bloodline, because those huge creatures often stand at a higher level in the food chain. However, when faced with this stone man, It was very calm at the time.

Although they were missing Shutarke in the front row, Ai and Fearon still defeated the stone man in the end.

Watching the huge stone man as hard as steel disintegrate into countless small stones and even dust, Ji's expression remained unmoved.

Feilun behind him suddenly said: "This is not a monster."

Ash responded without looking back: "This is a magical creation. It should be specially created to protect this door."

As he spoke, Ai turned his attention to the huge door.

After the stone man was defeated, the door opened by itself, revealing the light-less downwards.

"It's really a staircase leading to the next level..."

"Didn't I say so?"

"...Why does Lord Ash seem so proud?"

There is no end to the stairs extending downward, and there seems to be some kind of beast lurking in the darkness, waiting for the arrival of the next arrogant person.

Jie glanced at the ferocious darkness, then withdrew his gaze without interest and walked back.

"Aren't you going to go down?"

Fearon tilted his head in confusion, "Maybe Lady Fulilian and the others have already gone down?"

"Of course not. I haven't raised the exploration level of this layer to 100% yet. There is still a large black area on the map that I haven't lit up yet. How could I just go to the next map like this? I also have obsessive-compulsive disorder. ah."

Ai turned back and smiled at Feilun, "Don't worry, if Fulilian really comes here, she will definitely do the same thing as me."

Feilun stared at Ji for a while, but after seeing his back getting further and further away, she hurriedly followed him.

Returning to the previous fork in the road, Ai chose another direction that he had not taken before.

Travel, defeat monsters, avoid traps... repeat.

"It seems to be a dead end again."

Fearon said this while looking at the mottled stone wall in front of him.

"...No, not this time."

Under Fei Lun's gaze, Ai slowly walked forward.

After some searching, Ai successfully triggered the switch, and the stone wall in front of him opened like a door driven by the mechanism.

A very small secret room and a slightly shabby treasure box appeared in front of the two people.

"Look, I was right."

Zhan boasted to Philen and ran towards the treasure chest with brisk steps.

In terms of obsession with treasure chests, Han and Fulilian were surprisingly similar.

But unlike Fulilian, Han could distinguish between treasure chest monsters and normal treasure chests.

Han squatted in front of the treasure chest, rubbed his hands expectantly and opened the treasure chest. Behind him, Philen stared at Han's defenseless back in a daze.

"Hey! Philen, look what I see? Super precious magic book! If Fulilian is here, she will definitely be very happy..."

Zhan turned around and raised the magic book in her hand. An innocent smile like a child appeared on her face, and pure joy in her eyes was like bright stars.

However, at the moment she turned her head, the extremely penetrating magic light column swallowed up half of her body.

Half of Ash's body, including his heart, completely disappeared, and the fragments of his white clothes danced in the air like bloody butterflies.

It can be said that this injury is fatal.
